Define, Measure, Analyse, Improve and Control. The well-established project management method for running Lean Six Sigma projects. Systematic, using standard methods and tools, based on facts and data, and capable of solving difficult problems and improving complex processes. The DMAIC process is often shown as linear but in practice it is iterative with PDCA cycles as the team moves from Define towards Control. See PDCA.
